Date

Upgrade Plan to Yearly

 

I'm trying to upgrade but the charge is not going through. It's showing a payment due date that's already past. What can I do?
Thank you,

Re: Cover page photos

 

Use PhotoShop, merge or stitch several pics side by side so it becomes a single picture.? Post as a single picture.? Remember the aspect ratio is about 3 wide by 1 tall.

Transferring a Yahoo Group to Groups.io #yahoo #transfer #askmembers

 

I manage a small (<25) private Property Owners Association group in the Yahoo Groups.? I would like to transfer everything over to a new group in Groups.io - including member data and files, in particular.? I found that Yahoo provide tools for saving all of a groups data but I am not sure how to transfer and set it up here in Groups.io.? I have not formed the new group yet.? And to be honest, I have not done much research into this yet either.? Are there any instructions or tools to help me do this in Groups.io?

You can only have one picture there.? If you're seeing a group with more than one, they were merged into a single picture before uploading. (I did that on one of my groups.)

Yes, the price changed on Tuesday, October 22 2019 @ 9:00 am PDT.


Also, if I just pay for 1 month of premium and transfer,
You can't do a transfer by upgrading for one month, it has to be for a whole year.

I don't believe there's any way to do that since YG no longer has a Direct Add function.

He's trying to send an email to the group, [email protected], before becoming a member.? He needs to send a blank email to [email protected] and all should be well.

Could be any of them catching it, but my money would be on TrendMicro.? I would expect any program putting up a notice like that to identify itself.

I don't think it takes very long for the notice to change to "We've received the invite..." and update.? Once that happens, you make [email protected] a moderator and continue the process.? If you keep sending invites after one has been accepted, I believe it drops you to the bottom of the list.? People have been reporting that it can take almost 2 days for an invitation to actually be sent by Yahoo, so I'd (try to) be more patient.

Locked Price doubled?

 

Hi-
I just went to pay the $110 to transfer my Yahoo group and see that the price has gone from $110 to $220? Is that true??

Also, if I just pay for 1 month of premium and transfer, will I still have access to my files and archives that transferred over as long as it doesn¡¯t take up more that the allotted amount of space for the Basic plan?

Please advise.
Thanks,
Twinkle

If you make your new Groups.io group a member of the Y!G then any email sent to members will also be sent to the new Group in the normal way. Yes? Or am I wrong?
No, Groups.io will not become a member of the YahooGroup.

You invite [email protected] to become a member of the YahooGroup
when [email protected] accepts the invitation, you must promote [email protected] to become a Moderator of the YahooGroup

[email protected] does not forward YahooGroups emails to Groups.io members



Then when the transfer is done put everyone at Y!G group on moderation and /or no mail. Owner and moderators still get mail and deal with it. This should catch the stragglers and new applicants.
Yes, Owner and Moderators can reject / reply to posts sent to YahooGroup and remind them to use the new Groups.io posting email address


Subscribing by email failing for one user

 

Hi

I have one person who has tried emailing [email protected] and also doing an email reply to an?Invitation I have sent him who receives the following type of email reply.? It is particularly odd as it says he isn't a member of the group and "The following recipients did not receive this message:<[email protected]>" which isn't the email address he sent to. Other people have joined successfully. He is not confident of using the web forms to join so I would like to enable the email method.? Has anyone come across this or a possible solution?

suspicious link messge #post-transfer

Sheila Buff
 

Our transfer from Yahoo went very smoothly---many thanks to the people at groups.io.
One post-transfer issue has come up, in this message from a member:

I have a question/issue. When I click on a link in one of these messages, I get a warning about it being a suspicious link. I'm using Gmail, Chrome, Windows 10, and TrendMicro Maximum Security. I don't know where the issue lies. Any ideas how to get those warnings to stop? It only started after the migration so I'm guessing I need to whitelist something somewhere but have no idea what or how to do it.

I think she just needs to whitelist with her ISP. Will this solve her issue? Does she need to something else??


Re: Wrong "welcome" message being sent

 

Yep, I got rid of ¡°test¡± in the group name well before instigating the transfer. Even before upgrading to a premium account. And I can confirm that the correct name is showing up on the transfer page (¡°awaiting transfer¡±).
?
Now that I know where that welcome message is stored, I¡¯ve edited the heck out of it (and made sure all the links have the correct URLs). Not a bad interface!
?
Thanks so much for your detailed reply.

If you changed the name at Step 1 of the transfer process, you should be fine. If you changed it at Step 4, I can't imagine any good coming from that.

There are several adverse impacts to renaming a group. See?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Renaming-a-Group

Go to Admin>Settings>Member Notices and edit it. But if I were you, I'd immediately be going to the transfer status page to see if the group names listed remain correct -- and if not, what you can do to fix it. You can fix the welcome message anytime, but you don't want your transfer to hang.

Good luck,

Re: Can not get transfer request to show up in the "In Process" list

 

Hi Duane,
Not that it matters much except for the why.... If it does update the box when it accepts the invite, then it looks like there was a hiccup because transfer@groups was a member of my yahoo group but my box has never updated.

I have deleted the transfer@... and re-set an invite. Maybe this time it will go though smoothly?
I have not seen the email, but basically I guessing give it 30 minutes or so, and keep repeating step 10 (the invite) till I get the email or that box "Existing Transfers" is updated and I see the request. Do I have to get the email and the box updated before the next step? I am a little concerned because it looks like I am now stuck here, invite sent, waited ~30 minutes, second invite but still no response (email or Existing Transfers updating). Should I wait longer than 30 minutes after the invite from yahoo is sent?

Thanks again for your support!

Darci

While waiting for the transfer, I did a Direct Add, and the welcome message that was received did not match the Direct Add welcome message ¡ª both in that it didn't include my custom text *and* it gives the incorrect URL (with "test" in the name).

I'm quite concerned that all 1,000 members of the old Yahoo Group will be sent this welcome message with the wrong URL. Is there anything I can do to get this straightened out ¡ª before the transfer is complete?

Thank you so much. I'm editing the default message now. What a relief! (Gotta start watching for those extra tab choices along the top . . .)
